Posted November 26, 20177 yr Another 42054 C model. It'll have 3 power functions, and at least 4 manual functions. The front will have a grabber like in @M_longer's C model, though without any function: -Front stage 1 (powered) -rotation rear excavator (powered) -rear excavator stage 1 (powered) -front stage 2 (manual)Â -rear excavator stage 2 (manual) -HoG steering (manual) -opening doors CURRENT STATE: Here are some pictures: Leave a comment! More progress soon. BrickbyBrickTechnic Edited December 11, 20177 yr by BrickbyBrickTechnic
November 26, 20177 yr Pitty that you are not making yellow one in this scale...it could have 4cylinder engine, 4 wheel drive, 3 mod steering...back to topic - I'm affraid that small LA is to week for that purpose, but lets see how another C model will look like

I have virtually no yellow pieces. 2. 3 steering modes are possible, but only with the complete removal of power functions and gearbox. The fake engine could be built into this, no problem (not working, just existent). 3. What is the problem with small LA's?Â

November 27, 20177 yr Author Update time! So I added the front hood and added the "pallet" attachment to the front. I have one problem though, and that's that the front looks kind of weird and half-baked and I don't know what to do about it, after 6 iterations. And a bit of side was added as I need to start rationing DBG pieces: So That's it. Leave a comment!
November 27, 20177 yr The front is too narrow, looks like you have wheel spacers on. Are you basing your build off of another machine? If so, could you post it so we have an idea?Â

December 2, 20177 yr Author So I tried to make the bodywork 1 stud wider on each side and here's what I got: How does it look? Leave a comment!
December 2, 20177 yr Looks better, but it would be best if you could print real machine dimension and masses page in scale that fits your moc to see proportions

December 2, 20177 yr Now that I see what it looks like with an extra stud on both sides, I think the thinner version looks better. With the addition of the 1x5 lift arm, the bodywork does not flow as nicely. Â
